I have been editing work for more than 3 years, and the writers of the Chicago Manual of Style are my personal heroes. I am familiar with AP, APA, and GPO style, and I am willing to learn and apply any other house style or formatting you require. I personally work on projects from start to finish: you've hired me, not an underling without superior credentials. Here is a partial listing of what I can do for authors, individuals, nonprofits, and businesses: E D I T I N G In my editing, my goal is to allow your most polished voice to shine through. I will keep your perspective intact while eliminating any errors of style, grammar, and usage.

I edit directly in Word using margin comments and the track changes feature.
